TNSRE serves the community of biomedical engineers and clinical researchers who work at the intersection of neuroscience and physical medicine. We publish novel approaches and technologies for better understanding neural systems, human movement, and the relationships between them, with a focus on assistive devices that improve life for patients, for practicing clinicians, and for everyday use.
Marianne Severens received the masters degree in movement sciences from Maastricht University, Maastricht, The Netherlands, and cognitive neurosciences from the Donders Institute for Brain, Cognition and Behaviour, Radboud University, Nijmegen, The Netherlands. Her Ph.D. project was a cooperation between the Sint Maartenskliniek and the Donders Centre for Cognition in which she investigated tactile stimulation for brain–computer interfaces (BCI) and possibilities of using BCI for the rehabilitation of gait.
She is now working as a Clinical Informatics Trainee at the Catharina Hospital and Technical University Eindhoven.
Recently, brain–computer interface (BCI) research has extended to investigate its possible use in motor rehabilitation. Most of these investigations have focused on the upper body. Only few studies consider gait because of the difficulty of recording EEG during gross movements....
